EDITORS COMMENTS
This page from the Tatler magazine offers a glimpse into the historic and grand occasion of the 1947 Royal Wedding, as Princess Elizabeth, the future Queen Elizabeth II, travelled to Westminster Abbey to marry Lieutenant Philip Mountbatten. The top left image shows the Irish State Coach, drawn by six grey horses, making its way down the Mall, surrounded by cheering crowds. The top right photograph captures the salute given as the coach passes under Admiralty Arch, a traditional gesture of respect to the monarch. In the bottom picture, King George VI, looking on with a mixture of pride and concern, watches as his elder daughter emerges from the coach, marking the beginning of her journey as a married woman and future monarch. This poignant moment in history was documented by the Tatler, providing a unique and intimate look into the royal wedding celebrations of 1947.
